Lisa’s pals blast Ant over new squeeze Anne-Marie
SCORNED Lisa Armstrong’s girl crew laid into Ant McPartlin’s new lover last night for “worming her way into” his life by “making him packed lunches”.
Several of the make-up artist’s close pals hit out at Anne-Marie Corbett, claiming she targeted Ant and broke the “girl code”. She sees the millionaire telly presenter as her “meal ticket”, they claimed last night.
Lisa claimed mum-of-two AnneMarie, 42, had betrayed her after she employed the pretty blonde as a personal assistant.
An online pic shows the former girl pals together as recently as last year. Lisa had been married to Ant for 12 years before splitting this year as the Britain’s Got Talent host, also 42, battled drink and drug addictions. Friend Natalie Kerr wrote on Twitter: “If by being paid to walk a dog/make a pack lunch makes you a rock after being by someone’s side for 20ys you must be a mountain lady.” Shannon Sait added: “Ms Corbett should be ashamed of herself...
STORY: Yesterday’s Star she saw her meal ticket and wormed her way in.”
Lisa, 41, revealed she only found out that Ant is moving on with a new woman when she read it online.
Her colleagues on Strictly Come Dancing, where Lisa, right, does the stars’ make-up, have called on her to join a dating app.
A source said: “Some have even told her to look for love when she works on Strictly.” Meanwhile, a divorce lawyer claims Lisa might try to take her estranged husband to the cleaners after the revelation of his new squeeze broke.
Julian Ribet, a partner at Levison Meltzer Pigott, believes Lisa could try to get a bigger share of his £32million fortune.
Body language expert Judi James thinks Anne-Marie is lured by Ant’s “star quality”. She said: “There is some return to the kind of bounce he had before. Anne-Marie might be being described as his rock but here it looks more about him being seen as the alpha star.”
